Entanglement Detection for Two-Qubit and Three-Qubit Pure States via Unitary Transformations and Ancilla State Measurements

Quantum entanglement is the fundamental hallmark of quantum mechanics and a core resource for realizing long-distance quantum communication and scalable linear quantum computing. Accordingly, the precise detection and quantitative quantification of entanglement constitute a foundational and critical problem in quantum information theory. To date, researchers have proposed numerous sufficient conditions for entanglement detection as well as a variety of entanglement measures to characterize the entanglement strength of quantum states; nevertheless, efficient and direct measurement schemes for core entanglement parameters remain underdeveloped. Based on unitary transformations and auxiliary measurements, this paper proposes a set of quantum circuit schemes capable of directly measuring the bipartite concurrence and the tripartite 3-tangle entanglement measure. By introducing auxiliary qubits and constructing specific controlled unitary operations, the proposed scheme maps the analytical expressions of the two entanglement measures onto the measurement probabilities of output states from quantum circuits. It enables efficient and direct quantitative measurement of bipartite and tripartite entanglement without performing full quantum state tomography. This work provides a feasible technical route for the experimental characterization of entanglement properties and lays a groundwork for the practical deployment of multipartite entanglement resources in quantum information processing.

Wave-Particle-Mixedness Relationships Based on lp-norm Coherence

We investigate the relationships among the wave property, particle property and mixedness of quantum states based on the lp-norm coherence. By conforming that the lp-norm coherence is an appropriate measure of wave property and introducing a measure of particle property based on the differences between the maximal l2-norm coherence and the general l2-norm coherence, we present tradeoff relationships among the wave, particle and mixedness of quantum states. For 1<= p <2, we establish two kinds of tradeoffs of the wave, particle and mixedness with respect to the upper and lower bounds of the lp-norm coherence given by the l2-norm coherence. These trade relations give rise to compressive understanding of the intrinsic connections among the wave, particle and mixedness of quantum states, and cover some existing results as particular ones.

Quantum Circuit Implementation of Two Matrix Product Operations and Elementary Column Transformations

This paper focuses on quantum algorithms for three key matrix operations: Hadamard (Schur) product, Kronecker (tensor) product, and elementary column transformations each. By designing specific unitary transformations and auxiliary quantum measurement, efficient quantum schemes with circuit diagrams are proposed. Their computational depths are: O(1) for Kronecker product; O(max(m,n)) for Hadamard product (linked to matrix dimensions); and O(m) for elementary column transformations of (2^n X 2^m) matrices (dependent only on column count).Notably, compared to traditional column transformation via matrix transposition and row transformations, this scheme reduces computation steps and quantum gate usage, lowering quantum computing energy costs.

Quantum Algorithms for Matrix Operations Based on Unitary Transformations and Ancillary State Measurements

MQuantum algorithms of matrix operations are of great significance in many fields in science and technology. In this paper, by leveraging multi-qubit Toffoli gates and basic single-qubit operations, the quantum algorithms of matrix operations of row addition, row swapping, trace calculation and transpose are obtained. In particular, the complexities of these quantum algorithms are presented, too.

Basis-independent Coherence and its Applications

In the quantitative theory of quantum coherence, the amount of coherence for given states can be meaningfully discussed only when referring to a preferred basis. One of the objections to this quantification is that the amount of coherence is an intrinsically basis-dependent quantity. This limitation can, however, be lifted when considering a set of quantum states invariant under arbitrary unitary transformations. Thus, we analyze a basis-independent definition of quantum coherence, and the incoherent state is taken as the maximally mixed state. We describe the relationship between the basis-independent and the basis-dependent approaches and give several applications to show the advantages of the former method. The relations among basis-independent coherence, quantum entanglement, and quantum discord are discussed by using the relative entropy within a multipartite system.

Concurrence triangle induced genuine multipartite entanglement measure

We study the quantification of genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) for general multipartite states. A set of inequalities satisfied by the entanglement of $N$-partite pure states is derived by exploiting the restrictions on entanglement distributions, showing that the bipartite entanglement between each part and its remaining ones cannot exceed the sum of the other partners with their remaining ones. Then a series of triangles, named concurrence triangles, are established corresponding to these inequalities. Proper genuine multipartite entanglement measures are thus constructed by using the geometric mean area of these concurrence triangles, which are non-increasing under local operation and classical communication. The GME measures classify which parts are separable or entangled with the rest ones for non genuine entangled pure states. The GME measures for mixed states are given via the convex roof construction, and a witness to detect the GME of multipartite mixed states is presented by an approach based on state purifications. Detailed examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of our GME measures.

Quantum coherence in mutually unbiased bases

We investigate the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of quantum states in mutually unbiased bases. We find that the sum of squared $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of the mixed state single qubit is less than two. We derive the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of three classes of $X$ states in nontrivial mutually unbiased bases for $4$-dimensional Hilbert space is equal. We proposed "autotensor of mutually unbiased basis(AMUB)" by the tensor of mutually unbiased bases, and depict the level surface of constant the sum of the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of Bell-diagonal states in AMUB. We find the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of Werner states and isotropic states in AMUB is equal respectively.

Unextendible Maximally Entangled Bases in $\mathbb{C}^{pd}\otimes \mathbb{C}^{qd}$

The construction of unextendible maximally entangled bases is tightly related to quantum information processing like local state discrimination. We put forward two constructions of UMEBs in $\mathbb {C}^{pd}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{qd}$($p\leq q$) based on the constructions of UMEBs in $\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d}$ and in $\mathbb {C}^{p}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{q}$, which generalizes the results in [Phys. Rev. A. 94, 052302 (2016)] by two approaches. Two different 48-member UMEBs in $\mathbb {C}^{6}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{9}$ have been constructed in detail.

Constructions of Unextendible Maximally Entangled Bases in $\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d^{\prime}}$

We study unextendible maximally entangled bases (UMEBs) in $\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d^{\prime}}$ ($d<d'$). An operational method to construct UMEBs containing $d(d^{\prime}-1)$ maximally entangled vectors is established, and two UMEBs in $\mathbb {C}^{5}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{6}$ and $\mathbb {C}^{5}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{12}$ are given as examples. Furthermore, a systematic way of constructing UMEBs containing $d(d^{\prime}-r)$ maximally entangled vectors in $\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d^{\prime}}$ is presented for $r=1,2,\cdots, d-1$. Correspondingly, two UMEBs in $\mathbb {C}^{3}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{10}$ are obtained.
